10082011 Scrabble Poetry Exercise requires your participation. Post your instant masterpiece at the bottom of the page (as a comment, thanks)!

The student-warriors present this week were Dan, Ahmed, and myself. I don’t have too much to say about the match this week other than that Ahmed was victorious again scoring 234, Dan finished with 195, and I came in dead last with 171 points.


Josh considers ordering the S.O.

Josh, another couch surfer, showed up too late again to play scrabble. Instead he was content to scribble geometric lines and patterns on a lacy napkin. He's a retired Microsoft programmer and creative musician. On a few occasions, Josh has composed, recorded, and mastered an album (of experimental music) in twenty-four hours.




Is Ahmed cheating? Is he planing his next play in the dictionary...hm..
...this must be why he usually wins...

I was close four plays in

my two big plays for 25 & 26 points


The spread was tight
 
...the writers exercise is at the bottom...





















you get extra credit if you can read Ahmed's hand writing

The Racer Café is an interesting joint. They serve good breakfast foods and the walls are a tribute to bad art. I spent a fifteen minutes photographing a few of the worst pieces. There are several portraits of Jesus (most are in the Obama room) and one of them, on the north wall, is composed entirely of easter peeps.

the cross eyed farmers union meets at the square












peeps jeer and rend the vile pouch
 





the peeping Jesus waits to be eaten
understanding follows digestion
 

The final layout of all but these four tiles: "I, R, U, & R."
